In a Fermentation lab report using fruit juice, Briefly summarize the methods of this experiment. Remember the methods need to include important information so that another person can replicate the experiment.
Ingredients needed to carry out this process-
a.1 bottle of fruit juices which should be preservative free and must contain 100% fruit .
b.1/4 tablespoon (1oz) yeast
c.Glass containers
d. u may add sugars , its optional.
First of all pour 20z(5 tablespoon) of juice from the bottle to prevent overflow durig the fermentation process.
Then, the yeast is added into the juice.
Then, add an airlock to the top may be with a ballon and allow to ferment somewhere in a warm condition for 3-5 days.
As the process of fermentation goes on, the taste of the juice becomes less sweet and more alcoholic.
Remove the airlock and replace with the orginal cap , and store this in the fridge. Release the pressure built in the bottle every few days as needed.
NOTE: If u want a sparkling drink , then put the orginal cap after 3 days and put it in fridge , so that carbonation can build up.
To survive yeast needs sugars and other nutrients, all or most of these can be found in fruit juices . The yeast thus , breaks down the sugar present in the juice and converts it to energy in a process called fermemntation. As a byproduct of this process, the yeast generates both alcohol and carbon dioxide.
